Market environment

  • The beginning of the year was marked by the arrival of the Trump administration, which quickly threatened to introduce tariffs, alongside the Chinese threat to US technology.
  • From a macroeconomic perspective, data confirmed recent trends, with a robust US economy (GDP up by 0.6% over the quarter) and a sluggish European economy showing tentative signs of improvement.
  • The Federal Reserve paused its easing cycle in January after three consecutive cuts. Conversely, the European Central Bank cut its deposit rate by 25 bps in response to more moderate growth.
  • The equities markets started the year strongly, with Europe outperforming the US for a change.
  • The emergence of China's generative AI Deepseek, which is both powerful and cost-effective, has called into question the investment trajectory of US giants in this field, significantly impacting the semiconductor sector.
  • Regarding interest rates, Trump's return to power fueled fears of fiscal largesse and persistent inflation, leading to a rise in rates over the first two weeks. Subsequently, favorable inflation figures and concerns about US tech led to a decline in rates in the second half of the month.
  • In the credit markets, spreads tightened over the month. Simultaneously, the weakness of the US dollar favored emerging market debt.

Performance commentary

  • The fund began the year with strong performance, surpassing its reference indicator.
  • European equity markets experienced significant growth, and our strategy of investing in high-quality companies proved successful throughout the month.
  • Key contributors to the monthly performance included SAP, Hermès, and Experian, each achieving gains exceeding 15%.
  • In the fixed income sector, our prudent approach to sovereign bonds and substantial exposure to credit continued to deliver both absolute and relative performance.
  • Furthermore, our diversification strategies in commodities (gold, palladium, and silver) and our long positions in the BRL/EUR exchange rate positively impacted performance.

Outlook strategy

  • In the coming months, we anticipate significant volatility due to the interventions and negotiations of the new Trump administration, which could impact various sectors and the markets overall.
  • Nevertheless, President Trump's emphasis on economic growth is expected to initially support risky assets, bolstering our strategy of maintaining a high exposure to equities and credit.
  • In Europe, we observe that investor pessimism appears to be fully, if not excessively, reflected in the market.
  • Despite this, there are several reasons for cautious optimism: the elections in Germany and developments in Ukraine and China could serve as positive catalysts for the European economy and markets.
  • The Fund is strategically positioned to capitalize on the potential resurgence of interest in a region that has been largely overlooked by investors.
